• Heed all warnings.

• Follow all instructions.

• Do not use this apparatus near water.

• Clean only with dry cloth.

• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

• Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including ampliﬁ ers) that produce heat.

• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does

not ﬁ t into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

• Only use attachments/accessories speciﬁ ed by the manufacturer.

• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table speciﬁ ed by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/ apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

• Refer all servicing to qualiﬁ ed service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION

• Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects ﬁ lled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

• Always leave sufﬁ cient space

around the product for ventilation. Do not place product in or on a bed, rug, in a bookcase or cabinet that may prevent air ﬂ ow through vent openings.

• Do not place lighted candles, cigarettes, cigars, etc. on the product.

• Connect power cord only to AC power source as marked on the product.

• Care should be taken so that objects do not fall into the product.

• Do not attempt to disassemble the cabinet. This product does not contain customer serviceable components.

• The marking information is located at the bottom of apparatus.

• To be completely disconnect the power input, the mains plug of apparatus shall be disconnected from the mains.

• Mains plug is a disconnect device. The mains plug should not be obstructed OR should be easily accessed during intended use.

• The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation openings with items such as newspaper, table-cloths, curtains etc.

• No naked ﬂ ame sources, such as lighted candled, should be placed on the apparatus.

• Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery disposal.

• The use of apparatus in moderate climates.

This is class II equipment designed with double or reinforced insulation so it does not require a safety connection to electrical earth (US: ground).

Plugging in for power

AC OUTLET POWER SUPPLY: 120 V ~ 60 Hz

The AC power plug is polarized (one blade is wider than the other) and only ﬁ ts into AC power outlets one way. If the plug

will not go into the outlet completely, turn the plug over and try to insert it the other way. If it still does not ﬁ t, contact a qualiﬁ ed electrician to change the outlet, or use a different one. Do not attempt to bypass this safety feature.

Important battery precautions

• Any battery may present a risk of

ﬁ re, explosion, or chemical burn if abused. Do not try to charge a battery that is not intended to be recharged, do not incinerate, and do not puncture.

• Non-rechargeable batteries, such as

alkaline batteries, may leak if left in your product for a long period of time. Remove the batteries from the product if you are not going to use it for a month or more.

• If your product uses more than

one battery, do not mix types and make sure they are inserted

correctly. Mixing types or inserting incorrectly may cause them to leak.

• Discard any leaky or deformed battery immediately. They may cause skin burns or other personal injury.

• Please help to protect the environment by recycling or disposing of batteries according to federal, state, and local regulations.

WARNING: The battery (battery or batteries or battery pack) shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, ﬁ re or the like.

Ecology

Help protect the environment - we recommend that you dispose of used batteries by putting them into specially designed receptacles.

CAUTION! CD and DVD products utilize a laser. Do not try to open the product. Refer all servicing to qualiﬁ ed service personnel.

Portable Cart Warning

Setting clock

1. Press SET once. The current clock time ﬂ ashes on the display.

2. Press or to set the clock time. The time decrements or increments will change at a faster rate when you press and hold the buttons.

AM or PM indicator also lights beside the time on the display.

3. When ﬁ nished, wait for about 5 seconds or press SET to exit clock setting mode.

Refer to the Clock section for instructions on properly setting the Clock.

Battery back-up operation

• This clock radio is equipped with a timekeeping system that is powered with a 9-volt battery (not included). The power failure protection circuit will not operate unless battery is installed.

• When normal household power is interrupted, or AC line cord is unplugged, the battery will power the clock radio to keep track of time and alarm settings programmed into memory.

• When battery backup is operating during a power interruption, the clock display will not light, however the alarm will function at the set time as long as the remaining battery power is adequate.

• Normal operation will resume after AC power is restored so you will not have to reset the time or the alarm.

Note: It is recommended to replace the battery at least once per year even if no power failures have occurred.

Install battery as follow:

1. Remove battery compartment door (located at the bottom of the radio) by applying thumb pressure to the tab on battery door and

Switching on

Press ON to turn on the radio.

Switching band

Slide the BAND AM/FM switch on the right of the unit to select AM or FM band.

Tuning radio

Rotate the TUNING dial on the right of the unit to select radio frequency.

Antennas

AM Antenna – A built-in ferrite rod antenna eliminates the need for an outside antenna for AM reception. Rotating the unit slightly may improve reception of distant AM stations.

FM Antenna – This unit is equipped with an FM antenna at the back. Uncoil the antenna to its full length for best reception. Tape the end of the antenna onto the wall if possible to improve reception.

Built-In AFC – The Built In Automatic Frequency Control (AFC) works only on FM.

It helps to reduce drift on FM reception and keeps the radio locked in on the FM station to which it is tuned.

When tuning in FM stations, you may notice that the station you are tuning can be well-tuned on two or three nearby points on the dial. Always tune carefully at the loudest and clearest point.

Alkaline (NEDA 1604A/ IEC 6LR61) battery is recommended. Carbonzinc battery may be used but

timekeeping duration will

be substantially reduced.

Timekeeping duration for a fresh

alkaline battery is approximately 8 hours (

if alarm is not operated)

which should take care of short, nuisance-type AC power failures. To preserve battery life, the unit should remain plugged into an AC outlet. As the battery gets

older, its voltage drops and the timekeeping duration will be shorter.

Be sure to replace the battery periodically. Battery should be removed if the unit will be stored for more than one month. A leaky battery can badly

damage the clock radio.

then lift the door out and off the cabinet.

2. Connect a 9-volt battery (not supplied) to the connector plug.

3. Replace the compartment door.

It is recommended to plug the unit for AC power while replacing battery to avoid the loss of clock and wake time/mode settings.

Power failure indicator

If back-up battery has been removed or is too weak while AC power is disconnected, the time and alarm settings will be lost. After AC power is restored (reconnected), the Digital Display will blink to indicate that power was interrupted and you should readjust the time and alarm settings.
